(Jensen) HEY, TRU. GLAD I CAUGHT UP.

YOU GOT A FULL SCHEDULE FOR TODAY?

JUST CHEM LAB.

THEN THE REST OF THE DAY IS MINE.

THAT IS EXCELLENT, 'CAUSE I HAVE 2 TICKETS

TO THE BLUE SPOT AND THE SCOTT ROGO QUINTET.

UH, JENSEN, I'M SORRY, BUT I HATE JAZZ.

ME, TOO. LEXI'S THE ONE THAT WANTED TO GO.

OOPS.

TELL YOU WHAT. I BET YOU WE COULD GET $50

FOR THEM IN THE PARKING LOT.

I'VE NEVER BEEN SCALPING.

SWING BY AFTER CLASS.

[cell phone ringing]

(Tru) HEY, HAR'.

HEY, GUESS WHAT? OH, RIGHT, YOU'LL NEVER GUESS.

UNLESS IT'S DAY 2,

IN WHICH CASE YOU'LL PROBABLY TELL ME ABOUT IT.

HARRISON, I HAVE CLASS IN EXACTLY 90 SECONDS.

FINE. ONE OF DAD'S CLIENTS SAYS HIS PARTNER'S RIPPING HIM OFF.

WE GOT A TIP THE PARTNER'S GUYS

ARE MOVING A LOAD OF HOT ELECTRONICS TONIGHT.

AND HE NEEDS PICTURES.

I'M THE SHUTTER MAN.

IT'S NOT DANGEROUS, IS IT?

ONLY IF I SCREW IT UP.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA SCREW UP. YOU'RE GONNA BE GREAT.

OH. THAT'D MEAN MORE TO ME ON A DAY 2,

BUT THANKS FOR THE EFFORT.

BYE.

OK.

I HAVE WAITED A WEEK.

SO TO HELL WITH THE RULES.

SOMEBODY HAS GOT TO ASK SOMEBODY OUT FOR A DATE.

HOW ABOUT DINNER?

WELL, NOW? IT'S 9.30 IN THE MORNING.

ACTUALLY, I WAS THINKING OF LATER TONIGHT.

YES. OH, YEAH, OF COURSE, YES.

YES. YES.

GREAT. I'LL COOK.

CAN WE USE YOUR PLACE, THOUGH?

UH...

MY STOVE REFUSES TO COOPERATE.

OK, I JUST HAVE TO LEAVE A LITTLE EARLY TO--TO TIDY UP.

I'LL SEE YOU AT 7:00.

OK.

7:00. I SHOULD PROBABLY LEAVE NOW.

I ALWAYS WANTED TO LEARN THE GUITAR.

YOU KNOW, I'VE SEEN YOU BEFORE.

A BUNCH OF TIMES, REALLY. YOU WORK AROUND HERE?

UH, YEAH. ALL OVER THE CITY, ACTUALLY.

I'M NOT STALKING YOU.

IT'S JUST...

I KNOW THIS IS KIND OF OUT OF NOWHERE,

[whispering] BUT I'M PLAYING HOOKY TODAY.

AND I HAVE 2 TICKETS

TO SEE THIS JAZZ QUINTET AT THE BLUE SPOT TONIGHT.

IF YOU'RE NOT TOO BOOKED UP, MAYBE YOU'D LIKE TO COME WITH.

I CAN'T.

WORK'S A KILLER.

MAYBE SOME OTHER TIME...

(man) GREAT.

(woman) RIGHT.

2 TICKETS TO THE JAZZ FESTIVAL. DO I HEAR $20?

NO, I DON'T HEAR $20.

DO I HEAR $15? DO I HEAR $10?

HEY, WE HAVE THE PERFECT DATE.

WE JUST HAVE TO RUN, BUT WE HAVE THESE 2 TICKETS...

FOR $20. FOR 2?

$5. I'LL PAY YOU.

YOU'RE BACK. NO?

[both laughing]

YOU MADE ALL THIS IN MY KITCHEN, HUH?

I DID. DON'T YOU COOK?

UH, I'VE--I'VE MADE GAZPACHO A COUPLE OF TIMES,

BUT NOTHING LIKE THIS.

MMM.

THIS IS DELICIOUS. MMM. WHAT IS THIS?

TUNA PROVENGAL.

HMM.

WHAT? WHAT'S WRONG?

NOTHING.

IT'S JUST THE-- THE MERCURY LEVELS ARE KIND OF HIGH AND...

IT'S PROBABLY WHAT GIVES IT THE EXTRA TANG.

THE WINE'S GOOD. YEAH. THAT'S GOOD WINE.

RELAX.

[sighing]

IT'S JUST ME.

I KNOW, I'M SORRY, IT'S JUST...

I'M NERVOUS. NERVOUS BECAUSE THIS IS THE FIRST TIME

THAT A WOMAN HAS COOKED HERE FOR ME AND IT'S...

I TOTALLY GET IT. BUT YOU KNOW MAYBE

TONIGHT WILL TURN OUT TO BE AN EVENING

FULL OF FIRST TIMES.

OH.

I'M-- OH, GOD, I'M SUCH AN IDIOT.

I THOUGHT IT WAS A DOG.

[sighing]

(sports announcer on radio) COOGAN TAKES A HIT.

THEN ANOTHER.

[announcer continues chattering]

SMILE FOR THE BIRDIES, SUCKERS.

[chuckling]

I BET COOGAN WISHES HE HADN'T BOTHERED SHOWING UP TONIGHT.

AND HE GOES DOWN. COOGAN GOES DOWN.

[spectators roaring]

IT'S ALL OVER.

BILLY.

I TELL YOU, FOLKS.

SOMEBODY, SOMEBODY SHOULD'VE SEEN THIS COMING.

AND IT'S OFFICIAL. COOGAN IS OUT AND...

YOU'RE KIDDING ME. THAT'S AWFUL, HARRISON.

WHAT DID YOU DO, JUST THROW AWAY THE FILM?

WHAT WAS I SUPPOSED TO DO? I'VE KNOWN BILLY SINCE HIGH SCHOOL.

IF I DIDN'T HAVE A JOB WITH DAD, I'D BE DOING THE SAME THING.

LOADING A TRUCK UP WITH HIM.

SO WHAT DID YOU TELL DAD?

I--I LIED. I TOLD HIM

THAT THE LIGHT WAS BAD AND THE SHOTS WERE UNDEREXPOSED.

OH, GOD, HE WAS PISSED.

I--I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN DO IT.

I'M TAKING PICTURES OF MY FRIEND.

NO, YOU'RE DOING GREAT, HARRISON.

LOOK, NO ONE EVER SAID IT WOULD BE EASY.

OH, WELL, IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE EASY, TRU.

I JUST WISH IT WASN'T SO HARD.

I KNOW.

ANYWAY, I GOTTA GO.

BYE.

6 SUGARS, RIGHT?

7, BUT I'LL LIVE.

[chuckling]

(Jensen) OH, THAT'S FANTASTIC, AVERY. THANKS FOR CALLING.

EVIDENTLY I JUST WON A BUNCH OF MONEY

ON THE COOGAN FIGHT IN THE MED SCHOOL POOL.

$10 ON MONTEZ JUST TURNED INTO $100.

WOW. YEAH.

BOXING, SCALPING, GAMBLING?

DON'T LET THE G.P.A. FOOL YOU.

I'M A GANGSTER. HOLLER BACK, YOUNG'UN.

[both laughing]

[cell phone ringing]

YEAH.

OPERATION "SEDUCE DAVIS" DID NOT GO AS PLANNED.

I DON'T KNOW, I THINK I MAY HAVE COME ON TOO STRONG.

WHAT HAPPENED?

WELL, I TRIED TO LET HIM KNOW THAT I WAS INTERESTED IN HIM,

YOU KNOW, PHYSICALLY.

AND HE DIDN'T RESPOND?

NO, HE RESPONDED.

LIKE I GOOSED HIM WITH A CATTLE PROD.

SOME GUYS JUST NEED A LITTLE WARMIN' UP.

[Megan screaming] NO!

[people clamoring]

CALL YOU BACK.

OK.

AND I WAS THINKING THAT MAYBE

YOU AND I SHOULD, UH, YOU KNOW, GET TOGETHER ON SATURDAY.

AND SCALP PHANTOM OF THE OPERA TICKETS?

YEAH, THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I HAD IN MIND.

(woman) ...JUST JUMPED. I'LL CALL 911.

IT WAS DIFFERENT.

IT DIDN'T FEEL LIKE A NORMAL REWIND AT ALL.

AS BIZARRE AS THAT SOUNDS.

NO ONE ASKED FOR HELP, YOU'RE SURE?

THERE WERE NO CORPSES LYING AROUND, IF THAT'S WHAT YOU MEAN.

MAYBE YOU DIDN'T HEAR IT.

I ALWAYS HEAR IT.

WELL, DO YOU THINK MAYBE YOU DIED?

OK, NOW YOU'RE JUST CREEPING ME OUT.

[sighing]

OK, WHA--WHAT WERE YOU DOING WHEN IT HAPPENED?

I WAS ABOUT TO, UH,

DO SOMETHING PERSONAL.

OK. DESCRIBE THE REWIND. WHAT DID YOU SEE?

LIKE I SAID, IT WAS WEIRD.

IT WAS JUST LIKE RANDOM STUFF.

THERE WAS A--A PAINTING,

THERE WAS A--A MUSIC POSTER,

THERE WAS A GUITAR CASE, THERE WERE COINS.

AND THERE WAS A $20 BILL,

LIKE, UH, LIKE IN THE CASE.

IT WAS A STREET PERFORMER, OR SOMETHING, YOU KNOW?

WELL, THERE'S ALWAYS A BUNCH LIKE THAT AT ATLANTIC PLAZA.

THAT WAS THE LAST THING I SAW.

IT WAS THE CLOCK ON THE EDISON TOWER.

IT WAS 11:15, AND THE CLOCK, IT WAS MOVING AWAY, LIKE I WAS FALLING.

TRU, I'M, UH-- THIS, WELL, THIS-- THIS MAY BE A LITTLE CRAZY--

WHAT?

MAYBE THAT'S HOW THE VICTIM DIED.

FALLING OFF THE EDISON TOWER. MAYBE.

THERE IS AN OBSERVATION DECK.

BUT, DAVIS, WE'RE NOT EVEN SURE THERE WAS A VICTIM.

[sighing]

OR IF ANYONE ACTUALLY DIED.

I HATE THIS.

RIGHT WHEN I THOUGHT THAT I HAD THE RIGHT APPROACH TO THIS.

WELL, THE--THE--THE RULES HAVE CHANGED.

I MEAN, WE'RE-- WE'RE IN OPEN WATER NOW.

(Tru) THIS REWIND.

IT FELT BAD.

COLD.

LIKE PART OF ME WAS DYING.

ALL I KNOW IS I NEVER WANNA FEEL THAT WAY AGAIN.

I NEVER FELT ANYTHING LIKE IT.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO TELL YOU, JACK.

I'VE NEVER HEARD OF ANYTHING LIKE THIS HAPPENING BEFORE.

SHE ASKED ME FOR HELP.

DON'T GET KNOCKED OFF TRACK HERE.

DOING THE RIGHT THING IS ALWAYS HARDER.

BUT IF THE RULES CHANGED THIS TIME,

IT'S GOTTA BE FOR A REASON.

YOUR JOB HAS ALWAYS BEEN CLEAR.

MAKE TODAY END LIKE YESTERDAY.

WHAT THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?

YOUR JOB.

HARRISON, WAIT.

OH, NO. NO. NO. NO.

IT'S ONE OF THOSE DAYS, RIGHT, WHERE--

RELAX.

YOU DON'T DIE OR ANYTHING.

OH, PHEW. COOL.

I TRIED TO CALL YOU ON YOUR CELL PHONE,

BUT I WANTED YOU TO KNOW.

DAD'S GONNA GIVE YOU SOME BIG ASSIGNMENT.

HE WANTS YOU TO PHOTOGRAPH A CRIME TAKING PLACE.

VERY COOL.

YOUR FRIEND BILLY'S ONE OF THE CRIMINALS.

IF YOU TAKE THE PICTURES HE COULD GO TO JAIL.

NOT COOL.

'CAUSE IF I DON'T, THEN I'M GONNA BE IN TROUBLE WITH--

DAD.

HEY. UH...

WHAT A PLEASANT SURPRISE.

[chuckling] HEY.

YOU FEEL ALL RIGHT, SWEETIE? YOU LOOK LITTLE TIRED.

WELL, YOU KNOW HOW IT GOES, DAD.

I WORK IN A MORGUE.

I ONLY GET A DAY OFF IF DEATH TAKES A DAY OFF.

♪[playing]

CARRIE, IT'S DAY 2, AND HERE'S THE HEADLINE.

YOUR DINNER TONIGHT WITH DAVIS?

TAKE IT DOWN A NOTCH.

GO EASY. DON'T BE EASY.

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYIN'? CALL ME.

[people chattering]

YOU KNOW, I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO LEARN TO PLAY THE GUITAR.

ME, TOO.

I GUESS WE STILL COULD.

IT PROBABLY TAKES YEARS, THOUGH, RIGHT?

WHO'S GOT THAT KIND OF TIME?

[chuckling]

YOU KNOW, UM,

MY WORK THREW ME A CURVEBALL TODAY AND CANCELED ALL MY MEETINGS.

DO YOU WANT TO GET SOME BREAKFAST?

I THINK I HAVE TIME FOR THAT.

ALL RIGHT.

[both chuckling]

YOU STRIKE ME AS A TRADITIONALIST WHEN IT COMES TO BREAKFAST.

OH, I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT. NO. I GO A LITTLE CRAZY.

[Woman laughing]

[woman continues playing guitar]

WOW, A $20.

SOMEONE MUST'VE REALLY LIKED YOUR MUSIC.

ACTUALLY, HE LIKED THE GIRL NEXT TO HIM.

I THINK HE WAS TRYING TO IMPRESS HER.

HER?

YEAH, YOU JUST MISSED THEM.

SO, IT MUST BE A GREAT JOB YOU HAVE,

YOU CAN JUST SHOW UP WHEN YOU WANT,

NOT SHOW UP WHEN YOU WANT.

WELL, I'M SORT OF A TROUBLESHOOTER.

I TRY TO KEEP THINGS FROM VEERING OFF COURSE.

YOU?

I WAS A RECEPTIONIST AT ST. LUKE'S.

YESTERDAY WAS MY LAST DAY.

YOU QUIT? UH-HUH.

SO WHAT'S NEXT?

REMAINS TO BE SEEN.

BUT FOR TODAY, HMM...

I GOT A LIST.

A LIST?

WHY DO I GET THE FEELING THERE'S MORE TO THIS STORY?

WOULD YOU MIND IF I TOOK A LOOK AT THAT LIST?

[laughing] NO. IT'S PRIVATE.

REALLY, IT'S JUST SOME STUFF AROUND TOWN.

YOU KNOW, YOU CAN LIVE IN PARIS YOUR WHOLE LIFE

AND NEVER GO TO THE TOP OF THE EIFFEL TOWER. MMM-HMM.

SO WHAT'S NUMBER ONE TO DO ON THE AFOREMENTIONED LIST?

ARE YOU INVITING YOURSELF ALONG?

ONLY IF I'M WELCOME,

AND ONLY IF IT DOESN'T INVOLVE OPERA OR CLOWNS.

[giggling] YOU ARE.

AND IT DOESN'T.

I JUST HOPE YOU LIKE DEAD DUCKS.

HE EVER PAINTED.

I MAJORED IN ART HISTORY.

AND MY FIRST BIG CRUSH WAS ON ROBERT VAN DER KROL.

[Woman chuckling]

I STAYED UP ALL NIGHT WRITING AN ESSAY ON THIS VERY PAINTING,

CRYING THE ENTIRE TIME.

ALL HE WANTED WAS A NORMAL LIFE.

A WIFE, FAMILY.

HE COMPLETED OVER 200 CANVASES BY THE TIME HE WAS 29

AND NEVER SOLD A SINGLE ONE.

HE KILLED HIMSELF ONE NIGHT WITH POISON.

HE WAS COMPLETELY ALONE,

CONVINCED THAT NOBODY CARED ABOUT HIM OR HIS WORK,

THAT HE WAS WORTH MORE DEAD THAN ALIVE.

ARE YOU CRYING? UH-UH.

ARE YOU OK? UH-HUH.

[giggling]

(Tru) HEY, JACK.

STILL HAVEN'T LEARNED YOUR MANNERS.

I'M TRU DAVIES.

MEGAN ROBERTS. NICE TO MEET YOU.

SO WHAT'S NEW, JACK?

WOULD YOU GIVE ME A MINUTE?

MMM-HMM. SURE.

I KNOW HOW YOU'RE GETTING YOUR INSIDE INFORMATION.

YOU SEE THE VICTIM'S DAY WHEN YOU REWIND.

VERY CLEVER GIRL, TRU.

IT ONLY TOOK YOU 6 MONTHS TO FIGURE THAT ONE OUT.

LET ME GUESS, YOU SAW THE PAINTING?

JUST MY LUCK.

THIS WAS THE FIRST MUSEUM I TRIED.

SHE ASKED YOU FOR HELP, DIDN'T SHE?

WOW. SO OBVIOUSLY THERE'S BEEN SOME KIND OF SICK COSMIC MIX-UP.

MAYBE NOT.

MAYBE IT HAPPENED THIS WAY FOR A REASON.

WHAT'RE YOU SAYIN'? YOU'RE GONNA HELP HER?

"HELP ME" DOESN'T ALWAYS MEAN "SAVE ME."

THE HELL IT DOESN'T. WHY ELSE WOULD SHE ASK YOU?

TO BE PERFECTLY HONEST, I'M NOT SURE YET.

BUT THIS MUCH I DO KNOW.

SHE DIDN'T ASK YOU FOR HELP,

WHICH MEANS YOU'VE GOT NO BUSINESS HERE.

UNLESS, OF COURSE, YOU INTEND TO KILL HER.

OH, I WOULDN'T WANT TO STEP ON YOUR TOES.

ACTUALLY, SHE'S GONNA HANDLE THE HARD PART.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

SHE'S GONNA KILL HERSELF.

AND IF SHE DOESN'T WANT TO LIVE, SHE'S GOT NO USE FOR YOU.

YOUR GUESS WAS RIGHT, DAVIS.

MEGAN ROBERTS IS DEFINITELY THE VICTIM.

SHE JUMPED OFF THE EDISON TOWER.

OK, LET'S SEE. MEGAN ROBERTS, 28, ATTENDED REED COLLEGE.

SHE GRADUATED IN 1997.

CURRENTLY LIVES HERE IN TOWN AT 1025 BIRCH LANE.

THERE'S ALSO A WENDY ROBERTS, COULD BE A SISTER OR MOTHER.

I DON'T GET IT. WHY DOES SOMEONE

WHO WANTS TO DIE ASK FOR HELP?

CONSIDER WHO SHE ASKED: DEATH HIMSELF.

BUT SHE WAS ALREADY DEAD.

WHAT WOULD SHE NEED FROM JACK?

OR, MORE IMPORTANTLY, WHAT DOES SHE NEED FROM YOU?

[sports commentator chattering on T.V.]

[sighing]

FIGURED I'D FIND YOU HERE.

[laughing] HEY, MAN. UNBELIEVABLE.

[both laughing]

HEY, MAN, WHAT IS UP?

AH, YOU KNOW, SAME OLD.

WE CALL YOU EVERY FRIDAY NIGHT--

ED BONES' POKER GAME-- YOU NEVER SHOW.

I KNOW. I KNOW, MAN. I'VE BEEN CRAZY BUSY.

YEAH? WHAT'S HER NAME?

NO, NO, I--I GOT A JOB.

YEAH, I GOT A JOB. I'M WORKING FOR MY OLD MAN.

YOU'RE KIDDING, MAN, THAT'S GREAT!

I THOUGHT YOU WERE TOO COOL TO HANG OUT WITH US.

NO. CAN I GET 2?

SO, UH, HOW IS EVERYBODY, MAN?

HOW'S LARRY DOING?

OH, FAT LARRY, MAN, HE'S IN JAIL.

OH, SHUT UP.

NO, IT'S ASSAULT. HE'S LOOKIN' AT LIKE 8 YEARS.

WOW.

SO, WHAT, YOU CAME JUST TO HANG OUT AND GET FACED, OR WHAT?

WELL, YOU SEE, IT'S A LITTLE HARD TO EXPLAIN, ACTUALLY, UM...

OH. I KNOW WHY YOU'RE HERE. I KNOW THAT LOOK.

WHAT LOOK? WHAT LOOK?

THE WHOLE, "I'M BROKE AND I NEED SOME CASH." THAT'S WHAT LOOK.

NO. NO, NO, NO. IT'S NOT THAT, MAN. IT'S--IT'S--

CHILL. CHILL.

DON'T WORRY. LET YOUR BIG BROTHER BILLY FRONT YOU. CHECK IT.

THERE'S A JOB TONIGHT.

IT'S BOXES IN THE TRUCKS, EASY-PEAZY. HMM.

HUH? HMM.

UH, NO. I GOT A BETTER IDEA.

WHY DON'T WE GET SOME BEERS, GRAB SOME PIZZA,

WE'LL GO TO MY PLACE AND WE WATCH THAT COOGAN FIGHT, MAN.

WE'LL JUST KICK IT OLD-SCHOOL STYLE, MAN. ME AND YOU.

NO, DON'T WORRY, MY BROTHER. YOU'RE IN. COME ON.

SIT.

HEY.

WENDY, RIGHT?

RIGHT.

I'M TRU DAVIES.

MEGAN AND I USED TO BE FLOORMATES BACK AT REED.

SHE DOES LIVE HERE, RIGHT?

YEAH, SHE DOES.

UM, SO, UM, WHEN'S THE LAST TIME YOU AND MEGAN TALKED?

IT'S BEEN MOSTLY CHRISTMAS CARDS THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS.

ACTUALLY, I WAS STARTING TO GET A BIT WORRIED BECAUSE

SHE HASN'T RETURNED MY LAST COUPLE OF PHONE CALLS.

AND THE ONE TIME WE DID SPEAK,

SHE SOUNDED KIND OF DISTANT.

IS EVERYTHING ALL RIGHT?

LOOK, UM, WHY DON'T YOU COME INSIDE?

MAYBE WE SHOULD TALK.

WORKIN' LATE?

AS USUAL.

(Carrie) YEAH. ME, TOO.

SO I WAS THINKING, WHAT DO YOU SAY

THAT WE HAVE DINNER HERE TOGETHER?

IN THE MORGUE?

SURE. IT'LL BE FUN.

LIKE A PICNIC, ONLY WITH COLD TILE INSTEAD OF WARM SAND.

[Megan laughing]

HEY, UH, YOU GO IN. I'LL, UH, I'LL MEET YOU INSIDE.

OK.

I HAVE TO TALK TO MEGAN.

STAY OUT OF THIS, TRU.

SHE'S DYING.

I SPOKE TO HER SISTER. SHE HAS LEUKEMIA.

SO, YOU SEE, YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING TONIGHT.

SHE'S GONNA DIE ANYWAY.

DID YOU HEAR ME?

YEAH, I HEARD YOU.

(woman) THANK YOU.

JACK!

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA. WHERE'S YOUR TICKET?

I DON'T HAVE ONE. HOW MUCH ARE THEY?

WE'VE BEEN SOLD OUT FOR 2 WEEKS.

GOOD LUCK FINDIN' ANY.

2 TICKETS. I GOT 2 TICKETS FOR THE JAZZ.

ANYBODY WANT 2 TICKETS?

I'LL TAKE 'EM.

HEY, THAT'S WEIRD, I TRIED CALLING YOU EARLIER.

SO, HOW MUCH DO YOU WANT FOR 'EM?

WHAT, FOR THESE? NOTHING, YOU REALLY WANT 'EM?

FOR US, YOU AND ME, WE'LL GO, IT'LL BE FUN.

NO, NO, I--I HATE JAZZ. I DON'T WANT TO GO.

[chuckling] WELL, ME, TOO.

BUT, YOU KNOW, IT'S--IT'S LIKE LIMA BEANS.

YOU HAVE TO CHECK IN EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE

TO SEE IF YOUR TASTE HAS CHANGED.

COME ON.

♪[music playing]

HEY. HEY, YOU OK?

YEAH. YEAH, SURE.

OH, DON'T TELL ME. YOU HATE JAZZ?

NO, IT'S NOT THAT. IT'S JUST, UH...

IS THERE MAYBE SOMETHING GOING ON THAT YOU'RE NOT TELLIN' ME?

BECAUSE I LIKE YOU, MEGAN,

AND I THINK WE'VE BEEN HAVING A REALLY GREAT DAY.

THEN LET'S KEEP HAVING IT.

I'D LIKE THAT, BUT

I GET THE FEELING THERE'S NOT GONNA BE ANOTHER ONE.

LET'S SAY I TOLD YOU I WANTED TO SEE YOU AGAIN THIS WEEKEND.

WHAT WOULD YOU SAY TO THAT?

I'M NOT GONNA BE AROUND THIS WEEKEND.

WHERE YOU GONNA BE?

6 MONTHS AGO,

I FOUND OUT I HAVE LEUKEMIA.

THE DOCTORS GIVE ME A YEAR.

THE FIRST SYMPTOMS CAME ON PRETTY QUICK.

MY SISTER HAD TO QUIT HER JOB LAST MONTH

JUST TO TAKE CARE OF ME WHEN THINGS GOT BAD.

FROM HERE ON OUT, IT ONLY GETS WORSE.

THE GOOD DAYS, LIKE TODAY,

WILL SLOWLY DWINDLE AWAY TO NOTHING.

THE PAIN WILL GET WORSE.

MOST PEOPLE WITH THIS KIND OF LEUKEMIA

SPEND THE LAST FEW MONTHS OF THEIR LIVES IN A HOSPITAL BED,

HOOKED UP TO MACHINES AND TUBES,

COMPLETELY HELPLESS.

I WILL NOT DIE LIKE THAT.

THIS LIST?

IT'S 10 THINGS I WANTED TO DO BEFORE I DIED.

[chuckling]

ONLY GOT AROUND TO 4 OF 'EM.

PROCRASTINATED TILL THE END, I GUESS.

DO THE OTHERS FOR ME, JACK.

ONE DAY I WILL SEE YOU AGAIN

AND YOU CAN TELL ME ALL ABOUT IT.

THIS IS YOUR LIST.

YOU SHOULD DO THESE THINGS.

WHEN I WAS IN BED THESE LAST FEW WEEKS,

I MADE A PROMISE TO MYSELF.

IF I COULD GET JUST ONE MORE GOOD DAY,

I WOULD TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT.

I HAVE AN INSURANCE POLICY THROUGH WORK

GOOD ONLY IN CASE OF ACCIDENTAL DEATH.

$100,000.

MINE'S GOING TO MY SISTER.

AND YOU'RE GOIN' TO KILL YOURSELF?

NOT EXACTLY.

I TOLD YOU, THE POLICY DOESN'T PAY ON SUICIDE.

IT HAS TO LOOK LIKE AN ACCIDENT.

♪[playing]

HUH, I SHOULD'VE SEEN THIS COMING.

[giggling]

IT'S A LONG STORY.

HEY, YOU GUYS. WHAT A WEIRD COINCIDENCE.

JACK, MEGAN, THIS IS JENSEN RICHIE.

HEY, MAN. I SAW YOU AT TRU'S PARTY. HOW YOU DOIN'?

GOOD.

FIRST THE MUSEUM AND NOW THIS.

WE SHOULD ALL HANG OUT TOGETHER.

OR NOT. YOU WANT TO GET A DRINK, MEGAN?

YEAH, IT'D BE GREAT.

I'LL GET US SOMETHING, TOO. OH.

WHY DON'T YOU AND MEGAN HANG OUT AND WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

OK.

OK, WHAT IS IT WITH THOSE 2?

(Jensen) I DON'T KNOW. BUT I'M SURE IT'S ONE HELL OF A STORY.

[people clapping] SHE HAS AN INSURANCE POLICY. $100,000.

WHEN SHE DIED ON DAY 1, EVERYONE THOUGHT IT WAS SUICIDE.

TONIGHT, IT HAS TO LOOK LIKE AN ACCIDENT.

THAT'S THE ONLY WAY THE POLICY WILL PAY OFF.

THAT'S WHY SHE ASKED ME FOR HELP.

AND YOU'RE GONNA DO IT?

SHE WANTS THIS, TRU.

SHE DOESN'T WANT TO SUFFER THROUGH A LONG, SLOW, PAINFUL DECLINE.

IT'S HER LIFE. IT'S HER DEATH. IT'S HER DECISION.

I'M GONNA TALK TO HER, JACK.

WHETHER YOU WANT TO TRY AND STOP ME OR NOT.

BE MY GUEST.

TRU, YOU HAVE A REALLY HARD HEAD.

THANK YOU. I MEAN, I'M SORRY. ARE YOU OK?

NO, IT'S FINE. I THINK. I THOUGHT YOU... OW.

I THOUGHT YOU WERE GONNA GET DRINKS.

I TOTALLY FORGOT.

UM, WOULD YOU MIND GETTING THEM FOR US?

LOOK, I KNOW THIS IS WEIRD,

BUT KIND OF FUN IN A WEIRD WAY, RIGHT?

NOT REALLY, BUT--

5 MINUTES. I JUST NEED 5 MINUTES TO TALK TO MEGAN

AND THEN WE'LL GO AND GET SOME DINNER. MY TREAT.

OK. I'M JUST GONNA GO RINSE THE BLOOD OFF MY TEETH.

FANTASTIC IDEA.

ALL RIGHT.

I GOTTA TELL KEVIN YOU'RE ON BOARD FOR TONIGHT.

HEY, LOOK, ABOUT TONIGHT...

SKIP IT.

NO, SKIP IT.

NO, WE'RE GONNA MAKE LIKE $200, $300 IN HALF AN HOUR.

YEAH. YEAH. OR--OR GET NAILED.

COME ON, YOU JUST SPENT THE WHOLE DAY

TELLIN' ME THAT HALF THE GUYS WE GREW UP WITH ARE LOCKED UP.

THEY'RE IN JAIL.

YOU CAN'T BE LUCKY FOREVER.

ONE DAY THINGS ARE GONNA GO SOUR, MAN.

I JUST DON'T WANT IT TO BE TONIGHT. RIGHT?

SO WAIT UP. IS THAT WHY YOU CAME BY TODAY? NO.

YOU CAME BY TO TELL ME TO STOP DOING JOBS?

I DON'T SEE YOU FOR MONTHS AND SUDDENLY YOU'RE MY PAROLE OFFICER?

NO, I'M JUST SAYIN' YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO IT TONIGHT.

WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO? WANT ME TO CALL DADDY JUST LIKE YOU?

MAYBE HE CAN GIVE ME A JOB.

HERE'S THE PROBLEM. MY DADDY LIVES ON A BENCH

RIGHT ACROSS FROM THE BUS DEPOT. RIGHT?

LAST TIME I SAW HIM, HE ASKED ME FOR A QUARTER.

DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHO THE HELL I WAS.

WE GOTTA DO THIS LESS OFTEN.

HEY, I'M TRYING TO DO YOU A FAVOR, MAN.

STEP OFF.

I'M SORRY ABOUT YOUR FATHER, BUT TAKE IT FROM A FRIEND.

HAVE YOU KNOWN HIM A LONG TIME?

JUST MET HIM TODAY.

OH. IT'S FUNNY HOW THINGS CAN CHANGE IN A DAY, HUH?

OH, JUST SO YOU KNOW, JACK AND I ARE NOT TOGETHER.

WE NEVER HAVE BEEN.

SO HE'S FAIR GAME IF YOU'RE INTERESTED.

RIGHT WHEN I THOUGHT THAT I NEVER WOULD AGAIN.

SOMETIMES GOOD STUFF HAPPENS OUT OF THE BLUE, TOO.

SO APPARENTLY JACK TOLD YOU I'M DYING.

BETTER AND BETTER.

ANYWAY, YOU GUYS, IT WAS SO GREAT TO SEE YOU,

BUT I'VE GOT TO GO.

RIGHT NOW?

YEAH, JUST THINK ABOUT WHAT I SAID.

OK, MISS, I JUST NEED YOU TO SIGN RIGHT HERE AND HERE.

I DIDN'T KNOW YOU MADE A BET.

YEAH, I DID.

HOW MUCH DID YOU WIN?

UM, $100, LIKE YOU.

NICE. YOU KNOW YOU CAN GET THAT IN CASH.

YEAH, I KNOW, BUT IT'S FOR TAX PURPOSES.

THERE YOU GO.

THANKS.

YOU THINK I SHOULD'VE GOTTEN MINE IN A CHECK?

OH, NO, CASH IS SO MUCH MORE FUN.

YEAH.

THESE ARE FANTASTIC.

HARRISON, YOU JUST WON US THIS CASE.

I'M PROUD OF YOU.

UM, SO WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN TO THOSE GUYS?

JAIL, MOST LIKELY.

GREAT JOB, SON.

THANK YOU.

HOW WE DOIN' ON THAT LIST OF YOURS?

WE STILL GOT SOME TIME.

(Megan) I KNOW.

BUT RIGHT NOW, ALL I WANT TO DO IS SEE MY SISTER.

I HOPE SHE'S STILL AWAKE.

(Megan) WENDY?

YOU ARE NOT GONNA BELIEVE WHAT JUST HAPPENED.

YOUR FRIEND, TRU, STOPPED BY.

SHE JUST HANDED THIS TO ME.

SOME STORY ABOUT A--A SPECIAL CHARITY:

THE RELIVE YOUR DAY FOUNDATION.

I MEAN, IS THIS FOR REAL?

APPARENTLY.

DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT THIS MEANS?

THE BEST DOCTORS, THE BEST TREATMENT,

AND THAT TRIP TO GREECE YOU WANTED TO TAKE.

NUMBER 10 ON MY LIST.

WELL, WE'RE GOING.

[laughing]

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.

ME, TOO.

[Wendy sighing]

TODAY WAS... HOW DO I PUT THIS?

I KNOW, IT WAS BIZARRE.

I KNOW. I'M SORRY.

SOMETIMES MY LIFE CAN BE A LITTLE WEIRD.

YEAH, I NOTICED.

BUT HAVING YOU THERE MADE IT BETTER.

BETTER? LIKE ALMOST FUN.

ALMOST FUN?

THAT IS A RINGING ENDORSEMENT. "ALMOST FUN." NICE.

WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES I CAN JUST GO TO DINNER

AND SEE A MOVIE AND BE VERY, VERY NORMAL.

I THINK MAYBE NORMAL IS OVERRATED.

[door opening]

SO, ONE WEIRD DAY, HUH?

YOU HAVE NO IDEA.

WE HAD A LONG TALK, YOU KNOW?

YOU AND YOUR SISTER?

ME AND TRU.

SHE MADE ME THINK ABOUT A LOT OF STUFF.

I THINK MAYBE I'VE BEEN PRETTY SELFISH.

[chuckling] STUPID.

HOW SO?

WELL, I TRIED TO MAKE IT ALL ABOUT THE MONEY,

BUT NOW THAT WE HAVE IT, TIME SEEMS MORE IMPORTANT.

I THOUGHT YOU DIDN'T WANT MACHINES AND TUBES.

I DON'T.

BUT LIKE TRU SAID, I CAN ALWAYS GO TO PLAN B LATER.

IF I'VE GOT JUST A FEW MORE GOOD DAYS

WITH YOU,

THEN I DON'T WANT TO MISS ANY OF THEM.

I WAS GONNA SORT OF TAKE THIS ONE-WAY TRIP TONIGHT,

BUT NOW, IF YOU'RE WILLING, MAYBE WE COULD BOTH GO.

WHEN I WAS A LITTLE GIRL, MY DAD WORKED AT THE EDISON TOWER.

HE WOULD TAKE ME UP TO THE OBSERVATION DECK,

POINT OUT AT THE HORIZON AND SAY

THAT EVERYTHING I COULD POSSIBLY DREAM OF WAS JUST PAST THAT LINE.

HE'D SAY JUST PICTURE IT,

WHATEVER YOUR HEART DESIRES, AND IT'S OUT THERE JUST WAITING FOR YOU.

HE DIED WHEN I WAS 10,

BUT I'VE ALWAYS GONE BACK THERE

TO LOOK OUT OVER THE CITY AND DREAM ABOUT THE THINGS THAT I WANT.

IF I LOOK LONG ENOUGH, I CAN USUALLY SEE 'EM.

GO WITH ME TONIGHT, JACK.

AND WHAT DO YOU THINK WE'LL SEE?

ANOTHER DAY.

I'M GONNA GO GET MY COAT.

[door closing]

[dialing]

(Richard) HELLO.

SHE WAS GONNA KILL HERSELF.

ALL SHE WANTED FROM ME WAS TO HELP HER MAKE IT LOOK LIKE AN ACCIDENT.

CONGRATULATIONS. EASY DAY.

SHE CHANGED HER MIND.

THAT'S NOT AN OPTION.

I'M NOT GONNA KILL HER.

I'M AFRAID THAT'S NOT AN OPTION, EITHER. YOU KNOW THE RULES.

YEAH. A BODY ASKS TRU FOR HELP,

AND I MAKE SURE THEY STAY DEAD.

BUT I'M NOT THE ONE WHO CHANGED THE RULES THIS TIME.

SO AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED, IT'S DEALER'S CHOICE.

JACK,

WHEN FATE GETS MESSED WITH, THERE ARE CONSEQUENCES.

YOU READY TO ACCEPT THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THOSE CONSEQUENCES?

YOU HAVE TO BE STRONG, JACK, AND YOU HAVE TO DO YOUR JOB.

COME ON.

LET'S MAKE THIS A NIGHT TO REMEMBER.

[chuckling] OK, OK, OK, OK.

WHO SECRETLY LED THE ROHIRRIM

THROUGH THE MOUNTAIN PASSES TO MINAS TIRITH'S AID?

OK, I KNOW THIS.

OH, NO, IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE IT.

UH, CELEBRIMBORN?

OH, I GOT YOU. IT'S GHAN-BURI-GHAN.

OH.

YOU GOT TO TAKE YOUR PUNISHMENT.

[slurring] ALL RIGHT.

[cell phone ringing] HMM.

SAVED BY THE BELL.

[giggling]

[slurring] HELLO?

DAVIS?

NO, IT'S SAURON. OF COURSE IT'S DAVIS.

I NEED YOUR HELP. HAVE YOU BEEN DRINKING?

UH, UH, JUST A LITTLE BIT.

I'M ON A DATE WITH CARRIE, BUT I'M CLEARHEADED, I SWEAR.

RIGHT HERE AT YOUR SERVICE, GO AHEAD.

WELL, I'VE COVERED ALL THE BASES WITH MEGAN AND JACK,

BUT I'LL BE AT THE EDISON TOWER

JUST TO MAKE SURE NOTHING GOES WRONG.

DO YOU KNOW HOW LATE THE OBSERVATION DECK STAYS OPEN?

THE EDISON TOWER OBSERVATION DECK STAYS OPEN

FROM 9 A.M. TO MIDNIGHT.

I'M GONNA BE A LITTLE BIT LATE TO WORK.

I'M GONNA STAY TILL THEY CLOSE.

YOU GO, GIRL.

THANKS, D.

TAKE IT EASY ON THE BARTLES & JAYMES, OK?

OK. BYE-BYE.

I HAVE TO GO TO THE LITTLE GIRL'S ROOM.

OK.

[dialing]

[phone ringing]

(Jack) YEAH?

TRU'S HEADED TO EDISON TOWER. SHE WANTS TO GET THERE BEFORE YOU.

GOT IT. THANKS.

BAD NEWS?

WORK. SCHEDULING THING.

THEY ALWAYS CALL THIS LATE?

WE NEVER SLEEP.

[giggling]

WELL, I AM GLAD YOU TOOK THE DAY OFF.

YEAH. ME, TOO.

OTHERWISE TODAY WOULD'VE TURNED OUT VERY DIFFERENTLY.

I'LL TELL YOU A SECRET.

I, UH, I HATE MY JOB.

THEN WHY NOT QUIT?

I'M NOT SURE I'M STRONG ENOUGH.

OH.

SO, YOU TAKE SOME TIME OFF AND FIGURE IT OUT.

IT'S NOT THE END OF THE WORLD.

I HOPE NOT.

UH, YOU KNOW, YOU'VE NEVER TOLD ME EXACTLY

WHAT IT IS THAT YOU DO.

I HELP PEOPLE.

ALTHOUGH MOST OF THE TIME THEY DON'T REALIZE I AM HELPING THEM,

BUT I AM.

I TRY TO MAKE SURE THEIR LIVES GO ACCORDING TO PLAN.

LIKE A COUNSELOR?

YEAH.

SORT OF LIKE THAT.

HELPING PEOPLE.

IT DOESN'T SOUND SO BAD TO ME.

YOU KNOW WHAT WE SHOULD DO?

WE SHOULD CLOSE OUR EYES, SPIN AROUND,

POINT A FINGER AND WHATEVER DIRECTION IT IS, WE GO.

CAR, BOAT, TRAIN, I DON'T CARE.

FIRST THING IN THE MORNING.

THAT WOULD BE GREAT.

[Megan laughing]

IT'S FUNNY.

I FEEL LIKE I'VE BEEN GIVEN A 2ND CHANCE.

YOU KNOW THAT FEELING?

YEAH, I DO.

HEY, MEGAN.

UH, YOUR LIST.

YOU SHOULD KEEP IT NOW.

MEGAN, I'M SORRY.

I GOT IT.

NO, NO, WAIT A SEC.

HEY, IT'S MY LIST.

MEGAN, WAIT. MEGAN. MEGAN. WAIT.

[Megan screams]

JACK!

[screaming]

JACK!

I GOT YOU. I GOT YOU. I GOT YOU.

[sobbing]

HELP ME! JACK.

(woman) OH, LOOK UP THERE.

[people clamoring]

JACK, HELP ME!

[grunting]

[screaming]

HELP ME.

[sobbing] PULL ME UP. PLEASE, JACK.

PLEASE.

I CAN'T.

[gasping]

I CAN'T. I'M NOT STRONG ENOUGH.

[gasping]

JACK!

[screaming]

[sobbing] JACK! PLEASE! JACK!

HELP ME!

I'M SO, SO SORRY.

JACK!

JUST HOLD ON, MAN!

JACK.

SOMEBODY CALL 911.

[screaming]

[people exclaiming]

I WISH IT WERE YOU.

THAT MAKES 2 OF US.
